I rarely remember my dreams but almost always wake up with a song in my head and today it was ‘Obstacle 1’ from Interpol.

Had this one rolling around my head for a few days now. Devo is a personal fave and this is an excellent track.

Stewart’s drumming on ‘Driven to Tears’ gets me every time, just phenomenal.

Latest diversion from #socialmedia and it’s a worthy sequel to Tsushima.

My #soldering skills are well rusty. 😢 But it did work when I was done and my second kit turned out much better.

Was and still is the best 2600 game!! Activision really moved the bar with that one.

Really need this on vinyl but this’ll have to do in the meantime.
Such a beast of an album. The two opening tracks alone are worth the price of admission and it doesn’t stop there.

Was on a bit of a new wave kick yesterday, Duran Duran, Human League, and this one.
‘My Shadow in Vain’ is so frickin’ good!! But the whole album is also quite excellent!

Ps. When the guitar comes in on Careless Memories, gives me shivers every time.

Michael @thisisthenextstop.bsky.social · Sep 6

This album was a monster but honestly it could have been even bigger. Night Boat, Sound of Thunder, and Friends of Mine all could have been hits. They’re all terrific!!

Ugh!! Had one tiny little bit of the French lyrics stuck in my head for days!! Completely botched what the lyrics were so couldn’t find with the usual lyric search. Some intensive Googling finally cracked it.

As someone who spent years with the Pixel, I’m very happy to be back on an iPhone. It’s seriously night and day.
To be fair, I do miss taking pics on the Pixel though.

Not that I don’t love L&R but Tones were pretty frickin’ good too!!

Michael @thisisthenextstop.bsky.social · Aug 31

Such a masterpiece!!

Had an absolutely terrific bowl of gumbo at Bistro St. Michael in Maryland.
